"China now leads the world in AI research publications and citations, and is deploying industrial AI-integrated robots at nearly nine times the US rate."
"In 2024, China represented over 74 percent of the world's AI patent grants, compared to a distant 12 percent by the US."
"US and Chinese models have traded places at the top of performance rankings multiple times since early 2025."

China's AI strategy, initiated in 2017, aims for world-leading competitiveness by 2030. Recent reports indicate that China now leads in AI research publications and citations, deploying industrial AI robots at a significantly higher rate than the US. In terms of patents, China accounted for over 74% of global AI patent grants in 2024, while the US held only 12%. Although US AI models maintain a technical edge, their lead has diminished, with performance rankings fluctuating between US and Chinese models since early 2025.
